Angels

[Dedicated to Naomi, a pure and true loving soul who flew away before adulthood - March 20, 2005]

Angels are not dropped from the sky!

They are born among us and can’t fly!

Angels grow up as a symbol of wisdom and love

Ignoring most complications from our industrial world!

As most humans keep themselves submerged -

With modern chores and celebrations of glamour!

Angels work silently with smile

Making lives worry free and worthwhile!

Good souls only come to earth for a short while

Reminding us the goodness we all have inside!

Showing us the power of love over hatred –

Illuminate the joy of freedom in co-existence!

Enlighten minds to rise above doubts and fear

‘God means only good’, our universal dear!
